Response from Senator Here is the response I got from my Senator in TX. Looks like atleast this senator is aware of what's going on. Is there anyway the leaders at immigrationvoice.org could arrange a meeting with him in Washington to see if he can influence our cause. Dear Dr. XXXXX: I...

I got 5 of my friends to contribute. Will keep trying. (by the way I am 'silverstone' at immigrationvoice)

Title Vi SEC. 601. INCREASE IN EMPLOYMENT BASED VISAS. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the number of employment-based visas made available under sections 201(d) and 203(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1151(d), 1153(b)) for each fiscal year (beginning with the...

Reply from congressman My Congressman Mr. Gene Greene called me back today (See my Post #924 page 62). Unfortunately I did not have a signal so he left a message. He said that he had a chance to go over the section 8001 and he agreed that I was right in suggesting to recapture the green card...

Called Congressman Please see my previous post. I called Congressman Gene Green and spoke with the secretary. He is still not back in town. However I left a detailed message with the secretary explaining the difference between H1b and EB retrogression and requesting his support for section 8001...

Response Here is the response I got from my congressman Gene Green, 29th District Texas. 'Thank you for contacting our office regarding immigration reform and the impact it may have on our employment rate and our community. I appreciate your taking the time to contact us on this issue. The...

Slight Change "United State Senate passed S 1932 on November 3, 2005. In S. 1932 section 8001 allows to recapture unused visa. Please note under section 8001 of S. 1932 professionals who will be considered for these recaptured visa numbers, in most cases, are those who are already employed in...

Replace the word visa with Green Card Do everybody agree with this. I think it was suggested by many people that we should avoid the word visa as it is often confused with H1B.

Advantage Clearly these people are not understanding the difference between H1B and Retrogression judging from the responses they are sending us. As suggested in another thread this might work for our advantage. The big companies and Industries are lobbying for H1B increase and the EB...

Not a bad idea We cannot stop here friends. We may lose but we will not quit. We might get lucky and the more harder we try the more luckier we get. Can some Shakespeares around here draft a nice letter just focusing on the retrogression issues. Even if around 100 letters are faxed we might get...

They don't understand Our letters clearly mentioned the retrogression issue. I think when these politicians look at the immigration part of the S1932 they can only understand the H1 visa part because they would have heard about it in the media and elsewhere. I don't think they even know what a...

Only $$$$$ will work I am in favor of suggesting a fee increase in our letters. Beleive me, Politicians care least about our welfare. We are not vote banks for them. Politicians are politicians no matter where in the world they are. As Sundar99 said above, we have to word it in a way that...

Sent Fax I sent fax to all HRs in TX and to the House Budget committe members

Bait with more $$$ In the above sample letters we need to bait the HRs with more $$$. The line "Additional revenue for the Govt" could be changed as 'The Govt could charge upto $3000 or more per recaptured EB Visa which will fetch an additional revenue of atleast half a billion dollars'. MONEY...

Absolutely We need to come with a plan. We did a good job contacting our Senators and getting the bill passed in the senate. We need to do the same thing with the House Representatives. If 'pkadwala' can complee that list it would be most useful. Anybody out there who can come with a generic...

Thankyou Ginnu
